Zeiss Conquest V4 4-16X44 Zbi Illuminated Ret 68 Rifle Scope
The Zeiss Conquest V4 4-16x44 rifle scope combines a versatile magnification range with a compact, lightweight design—making it equally at home in a tree stand or prone on the ground at distance. Built for hunters and shooters who demand performance across traditional and long-range scenarios, this illuminated scope delivers the optical clarity and mechanical reliability Zeiss is known for, without unnecessary bulk.
Optical performance hinges on Zeiss's T* multi-coated lens system and LotusTec weather coating, which work together to transmit 90% of available light to your eye and shed water and debris in any conditions. The result is a bright, high-contrast sight picture from dawn through dusk, even when weather turns foul. Side parallax adjustment lets you dial out image blur for maximum accuracy at varying distances, while the Reticle #68 illuminated pattern—a refined tree-style design with 1-MOA hash marks—provides an intuitive aiming point and fast wind corrections without overwhelming the view.
Mechanical controls are built for real-world hunting. The External Locking Windage Turret (ELWT) lets you make fast, repeatable adjustments and then lock them down with a push. The ballistic stop makes it simple to return to zero under pressure. Enhanced turret engravings keep your settings readable from the shooting position, and the illuminated reticle center gives you a sharp point of aim in low-light conditions while keeping the rest of the reticle dark for an uncluttered view.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Zeiss Conquest V4 4-16x44 good for long-range hunting?
Yes. The 4-16x magnification range and the Reticle #68 design—which includes 1-MOA hash marks for wind corrections—make this scope well-suited to extended-distance shooting. The side parallax adjustment ensures precise focus at range, and the bright optics help you stay on target even in demanding light.
What does the illuminated reticle do?
Only the center section of the Reticle #68 illuminates, giving you a sharp, glowing point of aim in low-light conditions while keeping the rest of the reticle dark and uncluttered. This design is particularly effective for dawn and dusk hunting when light is fading.
Can I make windage adjustments quickly, and will they stay put?
The External Locking Windage Turret (ELWT) is designed for exactly that. Pull it out to make fast adjustments, then push it back in to lock them securely in place. The windage limiter further ensures repeatable, reliable corrections.
How does this scope perform in bad weather?
The LotusTec weather coating sheds water and debris, keeping your glass clear even in rain or wet brush. Combined with the T* lens coatings and 90% light transmission, the Conquest V4 maintains a bright, high-contrast image in poor conditions.
